“There’s so much negativity in the world and what you only need to hear is all the love.”

Music is the love of my life. It’s a total escape from reality. Music transports you to another place, someplace unexpected and meaningful.

I tell kids not to be on the Internet. It’s dangerous. It’s not fun. It wastes your life. You should just be outside playing sports, instead of sitting in front of any type of screen.

I’ve never just been able to be alone, and I’m obsessed with being alone and hearing my thoughts. I’m trying to take this alone time — the five minutes I do have a day — to learn as much as I can.

Drugs are for idiots. I’m never going to be that person.

It’s the little things that make us who we are in the bigger world.

There are times in my life where I’ve had boyfriends or girlfriends.

If someone tells you you’re not beautiful, turn around and walk away so they can have a great view of your fabulous ass.

When you’re younger, you’re more selfish, because there’s so much self-exploration, you’re in your own mind.

It is important to ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing and what purpose it serves in the big picture.

For me the most important thing is being a really good person, and that doesn’t depend on what you do on stage, that depends on how you treat people when you’re offstage.

Always look forward and try to push pass the negativity. I think everyone’s beautiful and they deserve to be happy no matter what.

I tell people, you know, going to the club doesn’t make me a bad person, going to church doesn’t make you a good one.

I think that if you’re doing something that’s important, that’s significant in your life, it takes some of the pain away.

Life is all about having a good time.

But I don’t necessarily define my faith by going to church every Sunday.

I know what I’m doing. I know I’m shocking you.

Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.

Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions destroyed.

It’s easy to hear the voices of others and often very difficult to hear your own.

What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.

Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.

In the house of poetry nothing endures that is not written with blood to be heard with blood.

I don’t have to hear that criticism, that idotic criticism anymore.

You don’t love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear.
